Jeremiah 30

1 This is the word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD:

1 耶和华对耶利米说：

2 “This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘Write in a book all the words that I have spoken to you.

2 “以色列的上帝耶和华这样说，‘你要把我对你说的一切话写在书卷上。

3 For behold, the days are coming, declares the LORD, when I will restore from captivity My people Israel and Judah, declares the LORD. I will restore them to the land that I gave to their fathers, and they will possess it.’”

3 耶和华说：看啊，时候将到，我要使我被掳的以色列和犹大子民返乡，回到我赐给他们祖先的土地上，恢复他们的地业。这是耶和华说的。’”

4 These are the words that the LORD spoke concerning Israel and Judah.

4 以下是耶和华谈论以色列和犹大的话。

5 Yes, this is what the LORD says: “A cry of panic is heard—a cry of terror, not of peace.

5 耶和华说：“我听见惊恐战栗的喊叫声， 没有平安。

6 Ask now, and see: Can a male give birth? Why then do I see every man with his hands on his stomach like a woman in labor and every face turned pale?

6 你们去问问看， 男人能分娩吗？ 为什么我看见男人们都双手捂着肚子， 好像分娩的妇人， 脸色苍白呢？

7 How awful that day will be! None will be like it! It is the time of Jacob’s distress, but he will be saved out of it.

7 唉！无比可怕的日子快来了， 那将是雅各子孙的苦难之日， 但他们必得拯救。”

8 On that day, declares the LORD of Hosts, I will break the yoke off their necks and tear off their bonds, and no longer will strangers enslave them.

8 万军之耶和华说：“那日，我要折断他们颈上的轭，砍断他们的锁链，使他们不再受外族人奴役。

9 Instead, they will serve the LORD their God and David their king, whom I will raise up for them.

9 他们要事奉他们的上帝耶和华，服侍我为他们选立来坐大卫宝座的王。

10 As for you, O Jacob My servant, do not be afraid, declares the LORD, and do not be dismayed, O Israel. For I will surely save you out of a distant place, your descendants from the land of their captivity! Jacob will return to quiet and ease, with no one to make him afraid.

10 “我的仆人雅各啊，不要害怕； 以色列啊，不要惊慌。 这是耶和华说的。 因为我必从远方拯救你， 从流亡之地拯救你的后裔， 使雅各重归故土，安享太平， 不受惊吓。

11 For I am with you to save you, declares the LORD. Though I will completely destroy all the nations to which I have scattered you, I will not completely destroy you. Yet I will discipline you justly, and will by no means leave you unpunished.”

11 因为我与你同在， 要拯救你。 这是耶和华说的。 我要彻底毁灭列国， 就是我曾使你流亡的地方。 但我不会彻底毁灭你， 也不会放过你， 我必公正地惩治你。”

12 For this is what the LORD says: “Your injury is incurable; your wound is grievous.

12 耶和华说： “你们的创伤无法医治， 你们的伤口无法痊愈。

13 There is no one to plead your cause, no remedy for your sores, no recovery for you.

13 没有人为你们辩护， 你们的伤处无药可治， 你们无法痊愈。

14 All your lovers have forgotten you; they no longer seek you, for I have struck you as an enemy would, with the discipline of someone cruel, because of your great iniquity and your numerous sins.

14 你们的盟友都忘了你们， 对你们漠不关心。 我要像你们的仇敌一样击打你们， 像敌人一样残酷地惩罚你们， 因为你们罪大恶极，罪过无数。

15 Why do you cry out over your wound? Your pain has no cure! Because of your great iniquity and your numerous sins I have done these things to you.

15 你们缘何为自己的创伤哭泣？ 你们的创伤无法医治。 因为你们罪大恶极，罪过无数， 我才这样惩罚你们。

16 Nevertheless, all who devour you will be devoured, and all your adversaries—every one of them—will go off into exile. Those who plundered you will be plundered, and all who raided you will be raided.

16 然而，吞吃你们的必被吞吃， 你们的敌人全被掳走， 掳掠你们的必被掳掠， 抢夺你们的必被抢夺。

17 But I will restore your health and heal your wounds, declares the LORD, because they call you an outcast, Zion, for whom no one cares.”

17 因为你们被称为弃儿， 是无人关心的锡安， 我要医治你们的创伤， 使你们康复。 这是耶和华说的。”

18 This is what the LORD says: “I will restore the fortunes of Jacob’s tents and have compassion on his dwellings. And the city will be rebuilt on her own ruins, and the palace will stand in its rightful place.

18 耶和华说： “看啊，我要使雅各家被掳的子孙返乡， 我要怜悯他们的家园， 使他们在废墟上重建城邑， 在原处重修宫殿。

19 Thanksgiving will proceed from them, a sound of celebration. I will multiply them, and they will not be decreased; I will honor them, and they will not be belittled.

19 那里必传出感谢和欢乐的声音。 我必使他们人丁兴旺， 不再减少； 我必使他们得享尊荣， 不再受歧视。

20 Their children will be as in days of old, and their congregation will be established before Me; and I will punish all their oppressors.

20 他们的儿女要如往日一样兴旺， 我要使他们的会众坚立， 我要惩罚所有压迫他们的人。

21 Their leader will be one of their own, and their ruler will arise from their midst. And I will bring him near, and he will approach Me, for who would dare on his own to approach Me?” declares the LORD.

21 他们的首领将是自己的同胞， 他们的元首将出自本族。 我必带领他近前来，他必到我面前， 因为无人敢贸然来到我面前。 这是耶和华说的。

22 “And you will be My people, and I will be your God.”

22 你们要做我的子民， 我要做你们的上帝。”

23 Behold, the storm of the LORD has gone out with fury, a whirlwind swirling down upon the heads of the wicked.

23 看啊，耶和华的怒气必如风暴一样横扫过来， 刮到恶人头上。

24 The fierce anger of the LORD will not turn back until He has fully accomplished the purposes of His heart. In the days to come you will understand this.

24 耶和华不完成祂心中的计划， 祂的烈怒必不止息。 将来有一天，你们会明白。
